Jinxu's Dow E-mini Journal 2010

Ok, you got me, I am the idiot. And your account reflects $5.00 commissions as you claim when actual commission should be $4.98? I still call bs for a number of reasons.

LOL. I hope you're kidding. My broker set it at $5 rt if I'm using $500 day margin. I don't know why. He could be cheating me out of 0.02 cent, but I don't really care. Commission is $10 rt with $300 day margin.
 
Do you actually have any historical data that shows you what you're doing is profitable? if you don't have this, then why do you think you'll make any money doing this!? your realtime results have sucked, so if you even have anything backing you up historically, you're better off starting over again strategy-wise and building up a real account size by making some real $ deposits. You're in too much of a hurry for this to work right now.

The time factor strategy will be the edge right now. There's no guarantee of anything. What matters is how well I can use it in live trading.

$10 a turn? Who would trade with that type of commission structure?

Perhaps, peopel who are swing-trading with a small account and are desperate for high intraday leverage.
